The general fund has been budgeted to the limit, he added. Commission’s Stand Taking a stand for the Bryan city commission’s action is slicing $8,075 in appropriations to the unit, Mayor Adams said that three towns, Midland, Big Spring and Baytown, which are comparable to Bryan, spent less than $10,000 (the amount which Bryan appropriated) toward the support of a county health unit. Dean Barlow asked the mayor to what extent Bryan could afford to do without the services to the health unit. After brief discussion it was generally agreed that if a health unit did not exist, Bryan would have to hire a sanitarian at a salary of $4,220, an inspector for milk and meat for $3,488; $2,400 would have to be appropria ted for mosquito and fly control, and another $1,000 for traveling expenses for the employees. After adding $3,600 for a veter inarian, the total cost would be in the neighborhood of $14,708, Dean Barlow said. Mayor Adams and City Manager Thomason, howev er, maintained that the city could “get along” on $10,000 if it became necessary. The possibility that the state will adopt Dean Barlow’s suggestion is considerably greater because of Bryan Air Force Base, said Ernest Langford, mayor of College Sta tion and chairman of the commit tee. p.m. and from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. and also Sunday morning at the St. Joseph Catholic Church by Rit- Rev.

College Station, Texas j-i'Y- There was a day when the railroad ended at the river. Cars were unloaded, freight was 1; ^ : transferred to the river boats. Then across stream, cars were reloaded and the railroad tllii continued its trek to the next river. But man discovered how to lay tracks on k , * the river. With the coming of the train barge, jPtyv freight stayed on the rails and was guided • across the river. In everyday life there are countless obsta- i cles which seem to defy human ingenuity. A man is tempted to abandon the “tracks” he . = has followed, believing he cannot go on. , j But usually the solution to these problems is just as simple as “laying tracks on the • Jfl river.” Stay on the rails and be guided across. ; ft The Church will help you live by Christian 1111 principles. And in the face of a crisis, be true l.} to those principles and depend on the guid- ; 5 ance of God. _ bL v.-.-.v.-v THE CHURCH FOR ALL . ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest fac tor on earth for the building of character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend services regularly and sup port the Church. They are: (1) For his own sake. (2) For his children's sake. (3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the sake of the Church itself, which needs his moral and ma terial support.
